Re: Ceramic Coated Piston Test Circle track magazine did a test with Swain coatings. You can read results here: http://www.swaintech.com/store.asp?pid=10321 I assume that gains should be much larger in a turbo engine. I'm going to get my pistons and heads coated.

Re: Alternate throttle bodies ? My home made intake is done for Infiniti Q45 throttle body. The Q45 has throttle diameter of 90 mm (3.5"). Should be big enough :) Got the throttle body from Ebay for something like $40 !!

Re: Bosch "intercooler pump" Specially to vortechfiero: I've made my DIY intake from an old tbi intake and I already have began making my DIY air-to-water intercooler. I'll try to take some pictures from these items and ad them to my webpages. I'll post link for you guys when I've done it.

Re: Bosch "intercooler pump" Ok ! I didn't know that it was OEM pump since I only have engine and it will be installed to a Fiero. Thanks for help !

Re: SBC Rods in a 4.3? Yep ! I'll do it when I get home from work. Edit: You can see pictures from pistons here: http://kotisivu.dnainternet.fi/iiro74/Fiero/ Quality is not best possible and I'll try to add better pictures later.

Re: SBC Rods in a 4.3? Not really related to orginal question, but one thing more to rod lenght issue. I plan to build my high compression (9.5:1) low boost (max 14 psi) engine with set of used Carrillo 6.125 rods that I got from Ebay and Wiseco PT009H3 pistons. Pistons have only 1.125"...

Re: Damper harmonic balancer One more question about dampers ! Is V6 dampers "tuned" to V6 harmonics or will any SBC fluiddamper that fits to crank snout do the job ? And I would also like to have the part number if someone knows it ?
